CAA38-5SB High-Efficiency Coalescing Filter Cartridge

Product Introduction

1. Product Concept

The CAA38-5SB is a heavy-duty, high-performance coalescing filter cartridge engineered for the most demanding industrial air and gas purification applications. Representing the pinnacle of Severe/Bold Service (SB) filtration technology, this cartridge is designed to operate reliably under extreme conditions including high contaminant loads, pulsating flows, and variable system pressures. It serves as a premium direct replacement for original equipment, utilizing advanced multi-stage coalescing media to remove sub-micron liquid aerosols—ensuring the delivery of ultra-clean, oil-free compressed air that consistently meets the strictest international purity standards while protecting critical downstream equipment from liquid contamination and damage.


2. Key Features & Advantages

  • Severe-Duty Construction & Reliability: Features reinforced internal/external support cages, industrial-grade end caps, and fortified media sealing to prevent bypass, migration, or collapse under extreme operational stress, ensuring structural integrity and consistent performance.

  • Exceptional Filtration Efficiency: Achieves 0.1-micron liquid aerosol removal with efficiency exceeding 99.9%, while providing complementary particulate filtration, delivering air quality that reliably complies with ISO 8573-1 Class 0 or Class 1 standards.

  • High Capacity & Extended Service Life: Engineered for maximum contaminant-holding capacity, significantly extending maintenance intervals and reducing total operational costs while maintaining stable, low differential pressure.

  • Optimized for High-Flow Systems: Designed to handle elevated flow rates (typically 25-35 Nm³/min) with minimal initial pressure drop, making it ideal for large central air systems and high-demand applications.

  • Precision Sealing & Compatibility: Equipped with a dual O-ring sealing system (standard Nitrile, optional Viton®/FKM) for perfect, leak-proof installation in compatible housings, ensuring full flow through the filter media.


3. Application Fields

The CAA38-5SB is deployed in critical industrial environments where equipment protection and system uptime are paramount:

  • Heavy Industrial & Manufacturing: Protection of large pneumatic systems, CNC machining centers, robotic automation, and production lines in automotive, aerospace, and heavy machinery sectors.

  • Process & Chemical Industries: Critical filtration for instrument and control air in chemical processing, petrochemical plants, refineries, and pharmaceutical manufacturing, where air purity directly impacts safety and product quality.

  • Large-Scale Compressed Air Infrastructure: Primary or secondary filtration in plant-wide compressed air networks, protecting downstream equipment such as desiccant dryers, membrane dryers, and distribution piping.

  • Energy & Power Generation: Natural gas stream purification, turbine control air filtration, and breathing air systems in power plants and energy distribution facilities.

  • OEM Service & High-Demand Replacements: Premium service solution for original equipment manufacturers and maintenance operations requiring maximum reliability under severe operating conditions.
